The VI is awesome thing for the freeway and boost.

Your car will run fine with a 96 JWT modified 5-speed ECU. You will get a CEL from the rear o2 sensor. It will just be a little annoying having to see the little red light all the time, but it will not hurt performance. The rear o2 sensor does not relay info to adjust air/fuel ratio's, it just monitors the cat.
I am in the Chicago western suburbs if you would like to take a ride in my VI/JWT-ECU 5-speed I30. I would most likely let you drive it as well (being that you don't seem like an idiot)
